;) :D Hi all, here's my Savannah beige 69'
In great shape, came from California in 07,
Full history, 2 owners and rust free :D

Plans are, 4" beam, dropped spindles, rear adj spring plates,
Being built ATM, then Nsu Ro80's detailed.
Paintworks great and mostly og, over-riders and a rear seat retrim will
be about all I want to do as I want to enjoy it.
I'll keep updating pics as it happens,
Cheers
Cathal

So the games on now to get er done in the next week or so,
Bit gutted today as I found some rust issues in the cab-floor,
no probs though I'll get it done at the same time.

Just going to weld some strips as the rests pretty solid,
Then I'm just get it sorted for the new year, hope you like.
 
Does look good - well done 8)

(Don't forget to change your 'Van Type' on the left :D )
 
Right, never got the Beam n Bits fitted due to circumstances beyond my control,
so got the finger out and started on the inside instead,
Took all the side panels off to check for rot/damp etc, thankfully none there.
So got rid of the dampish sound proofing and clean all back for paint.
This is how it looked at the start

And after a couple hours work, slightly better,

I'll keep on it till I get the lift free and the beam in later this week.
Slight change of plans regarding the rims hope they look ok,

It will go lower once I mot it next week, mot is a real ballache over here as its govt run,
Mot men hate lowered vehicles over here, so I'll leave it up a wee bit till its tested,
Cheers and Happy Crimble to all!
 
Just out of winter hibernation and some nice new shoes for the summer.

Had to raise it up at the front as it wouldn't go over the small ramp in me garage.
Next is new upholstery and new deluxe seals.
Cheers.

Looking sweet dude, is that the 4" beam you planned for? are they Empi or BBT Sprints?

Just fitting the same set up on mine, cool to see how mine should look ;) :mrgreen:
